THROWBACK THURSDAY

This week’s Throwback Thursday Pic is of the Norwich Block along Riverside Drive and Ouellette Avenue. Taken in the summer of 1976 from Dieppe Gardens. The Toronto Dominion Bank façade located at the corner of Riverside and Ouellette, had been saved to be used in a future location. As of 2022, the bank façade is still in storage. The Norwich Block was demolished in 1999-2000 to make way for the Chrysler Building that was to house the head office of Daimler Chrysler Canada.
